Don’t know.
We don’t have a national ID system in the U.S. In Wisconsin they mandated voter ID and promptly closed a lot of places to get said IDs. They made it harder for people to get it. In some states Polling places get closed down in poor areas or make things like 1 drop off location per county regardless of population size. Some places put in enough poll workers to make voting fast while limiting the number of poll workers in less desirable locations to make voting slow.
You can get a passport via mail and can file taxes via mail. Selective Service is done by mail. There isn’t any evidence of voter fraud beyond an extremely small number of cases. There are plenty of sources to give you the information on the ways voter suppression is accomplished. They are easy to find.

However, the initial application requires an in-person check. https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/passports/need-passport.html https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/passports/need-pa... https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/passports/have-passport/renew.html https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/passports/have-pa... https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/passports/need-passport/apply-in-person.html https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/passports/need-pa... > There isn’t any evidence of voter fraud beyond an extremely small number of cases.

- ineedasername 5y agoFormer President Trump setup a special commission to look for voter fraud and it was disbanded after not finding any significant evidence of widespread fraud. So even the most vocal proponent on the existence of fraud, with ample resources at their disposal, was unable to find it.
- syki 5y agoFirst time you get passport it’s in person. Renewals are by mail. So do you support first time voting in person and mail in voting for subsequent elections? I don’t believe there are a fair number of cases in which voter fraud caused the wrong candidate to win. I’m all in favor of week long voting, with plenty of well staffed polling places, and plenty of readily available places to acquire free state IDs. Continue with your belief that voter suppression is not a thing.
